(x+1)^2=9/25
take the square root of both side
x+1=3/5
cross &multiply
5(x+1)=3
5x+5=3
collect like terms
5x=3-5
5x=-2
divide both side by 5
x=-2/5

Square Root of both sides,
system%28x%2B1=-3%2F5%2COR%2Cx%2B1=3%2F5%29

x=-3%2F5-1
x=-3%2F5-5%2F5
x-8%2F5
-
x=3%2F5-1
x=3%2F5-5%2F5
x=-2%2F5
-

SOLUTION: system%28x=-8%2F5%2COR%2Cx=-2%2F5%29
